Feats/Statements

“The big traps in the underground Labyrinth are linked to the extraordinary monsters wandering on the surface.”

“Oh, you mean the ones known as Break News? I’ve also heard that the giant Dragons and Krakens have some kind of occult link that lets them power the giant Traps.”

[...]

“But the Break News have so much power it’s said each one has a soul. They were born in a certain environment, but they grew to the point that they can produce that environment. Both sides of the equation exist on equal footing. It’s like the chicken or the egg problem. But it would be foolish to think about defeating one of those to stop the Trap. For one, we don’t know which one is linked to cave 25, so-…”

[...]

“I seriously doubt they are, but they aren’t planning to put together a large-scale force for a Break News subjugation quest, are they? Surely not! That wouldn’t be possible. Those things are paradoxically thought to have a soul. Not even those of us at the level cap can hope to face them, so no one would accept that reckless of a request.”

[...]

The Break News were said to paradoxically have a soul and humans were no match for them even in a group, so what could they hope to do against that thousand meter Thousand Dragon? She did not know, but she could not just come to a stop. She had no set destination, but she called up a map using Magic and walked randomly around.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 01 - Break News are the strongest monsters/Nonhumans in Ground's Nir. Even Level Cappers like Beatrice think fighting them is suicide

Suddenly, a deep rumbling sound reached them from the distance.

The two of them looked over and grimaced in unison when they saw the shadow beginning to cover the entire sky.

“Looks like it’s going to rain.”

[...]

With that, the two of them walked quickly through the forest as if fleeing the dark shadow approaching them.

That shadow brought destructive rain.

However, it was not a dense layer of thunder clouds.

It was one of the Break News that moved freely through the outskirts of Ground’s Nir.

It was the Thousand Dragon.

As its name suggested, it was the king of flying dragons and it had an abnormal body that measured at a thousand meters.

[...]

The giant dragon Break News left.

The pouring rain let up and a large rainbow appeared in the blue sky.

[...]

“It is a giant Dragon over a thousand meters long. Simply splitting the air with its great form is enough to create something like a contrail that forms thick clouds. That water dragon lord creates irregular downpours like that. …But what are humans supposed to do about something like that? We aren’t the mysterious Dragon Eater from some dubious legend. We research and research some more to figure out how to avoid those things. Making contact yourself is suicidal.”

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 01 - Thousand Dragon is a giant water dragon 1km long that creates rain clouds just by flying around

Again and again, deafening collisions of steel and muscle burst out. Each time, an explosion of sparks flew out, a shockwave scattered, and Beatrice had to hold down her long silver hair as she watched from the side.

“Wow…”

Even if he had a Shining Weapon, Boo Boo could not use Magic. That was not an issue of learning it. Nonhumans had inborn Skills, but could not learn Magic. Learning Magic by earning Experience Points was only possible for those who had come from another world, so the Shining Weapon was only an incredibly strong and unbreakable club for Boo Boo.

And yet as he ran freely about, he used only that weapon to face the thousand-meter Dragon. It was less like a one-on-one duel and more like a giant pushing at a mountain. But instead of being the tomfoolery of a jester, he was pulling it off. He knocked back the great head that tried to bite through everything, he pushed back the body that tried to crush everything from above, and he broke through or sidestepped the great wind of the flapping wings and the torrent of ultra-pressurized water spewing from its mouth.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 01 - Fights Boo Boo; she can use the wind created by flapping her giant wings as a weapon and spit a torrent of ultra-pressurized water from her mouth

With the Thousand Dragon, it had been a simple matter of mass. Even if she tried to roast its giant body from the surface, it could have extinguished her flames like stepping on a cigarette butt. Not to mention that the Thousand Dragon specialized in flight. If it escaped to the sky and repeatedly swooped down like a meteor, she would be worn down before she could burn it.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 01 - Can easily defeat Beatrice

It was a small island, but she enjoyed the freedom there. A Break News would occasionally go on a rampage and significantly alter the landscape, but it was generally a peaceful and simple world.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 01 - Break News occasionaly rearrange Ground's Nir's landscape when they go on a rampage

As they discussed that, a shadow appeared in the moonlight.

The two of them looked even further into the heavens to see a giant cloud covering the full moon. But this was no normal meteorological condition. It should have been a perfectly cloudless night, so there was a reason these thick clouds were ignoring that assumption. Now, what being in Ground’s Nir could call in rainclouds?

[...]

That ruler of flying dragons measured more than 1000 meters long. When that Break News simply cut through the air, it would create enough of an air pressure difference to produce immense rain clouds.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Creates rainclouds

Flying at low altitude was enough to bring disaster.

An incredible wind swept across the entire area with enough force to knock over the mangrove trees.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Simply flying at low altitude knocks over trees with wind

An earthquake-like tremor passed through the ground and pillars of water made them all tremble.

The Break News had apparently made a lazy U-turn and then landed on the coast instead of in the forest.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Shakes the ground like an earthquake just by landing

“Boo Boo…!?”

Without thinking, I spoke in a voice outside a human’s audible range.

[...]

The dragon spoke in an ultra-low frequency growl that humans probably could not hear.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Can speak at a frquency unaudible to humans

The trees of the forest were knocked over as Boo Boo and the ruler of flying dragons rolled along and moved the battlefield. They seemed to move in a giant ring, first from the beach to the southern forest and then from the mangrove to the beach and into the ocean. Even the giant leeches, bats, and other blood-sucking animals fled.

“H-hey. Is that gonna be okay?”

Fighter Priest Armelina was taken aback. Boo Boo was singlehandedly fighting the colossal dragon that was the most obvious example of a Break News. The situation could hardly have been more dangerous, but the thought of helping made her legs tremble. She may have been at the level cap and thus one of the strongest humans, but that fierce attack was like an environmental change.

[...]

The palm-sized Fairy was clearly worried as she watched Boo Boo and the Thousand Dragon produce great blasts of sand while just barely far enough away to not interfere with the grounded ship used by the lunar eclipse controlling Vampire.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Fights Boo Boo

“L-Lady Sutriona! Can’t you help Boo Boo with your power!?”

“Are you sure you want two Break News colliding head-on? And if I was going to do that, this is a bad location. If I didn’t guide it further out to sea, we could easily blow away half the island. And I doubt that dragon will be so easily lured at the moment.”

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Sstrigona mentions that if she were to fight with the Thousand Dragon they could easily end up blowing away half of Ground's Nir

“The Thousand Dragon learned the bitter taste of defeat in that battle. Before, it thought it could always force its way to victory with brute strength alone, but now it’s learned there are some battles it can’t win without being a little cleverer. And now it is standing before Boo Boo again. Instead of running away, it wants to overcome this obstacle…or break through it.”

“Wait, you mean…?”

“The Thousand Dragon’s most important trait is its giant body and the extraordinary strength that allows it to move that great mass around. But to be honest, it’s hard to say Boo Boo gained full supremacy over that giant dragon. It’s 1000 meters long. If it puts its mind to it, it can use that for some frightening strategies instead of just brute strength.”

[...]

In a straight fight, Boo Boo had the advantage despite being so much smaller. Unlike a venomous insect attacking a human, he would win through pure physical strength. It was just like a bullet a few millimeters across opening a hole in a human’s forehead. Boo Boo’s athleticism had arrived at a level beyond even extraordinary, but the Thousand Dragon was well aware of that after its previous loss. And yet it was challenging the Iberian Orc. That meant it knew some way of overturning that assumption.

The colossal dragon roared.

Jaws large enough to break through a small reef approached Boo Boo from the heavens. The beach seemed to be under attack by a plesiosaur. But it did not reach the Iberian Orc. He jumped up with frightening leg strength and planted his feet on the Thousand Dragon’s approaching head.

“Ah!” shouted Meridiana.

In the last battle, Boo Boo had climbed onto the dragon’s head and jabbed his Shining Weapon into its skull to declare victory.

But the palm-sized Fairy had not raised her voice because she was certain of Boo Boo’s victory.

It happened a moment later.

The Thousand Dragon immediately leaped backwards as if performing a backflip.

To reiterate, this dragon was over 1000 meters long.

So by placing someone in its mouth and extending its body vertically, it could lift them 1000 meters into the air. It would take less than a second and the pressure difference was not addressed. It had failed to hold Boo Boo in its mouth, but having him on its head was similar.

Just like swinging a bucket of water around in a circle, centrifugal force kept him from falling off.

The movement of such an overwhelming mass stirred up the night air.

[...]

But it did not end there.

This was a backflip.

While upside down, the Thousand Dragon plunged headfirst into the seawater.

Meaning…

“This isn’t good… Does it plan to drag Boo Boo 1000 meters below the ocean!?”

An explosive roar answered her.

At a kilometer out at sea, an incredible crater of water spread out in every direction like an asteroid had hit.

Rotating down from an altitude of 1000 meters would bring them 1000 meters below the ocean. It was nothing more than a backflip for the Thousand Dragon, but it was very different for Boo Boo. Just under 4 meters seemed gigantic from a human perspective, but he was not as solid as a metal diving suit that pushed back all the effects of the water pressure.

And even if he could withstand the pressure, he was still 1000 meters underwater. If the Thousand Dragon let go of Boo Boo, he could not return to the surface on his own. His breath would not last. And even if his fierce muscular strength allowed him to clear that 1 kilometer depth in a short period of time, then the risk of decompression sickness became a problem. The blood flowing through his veins could easily break apart.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Having learned that she couldn't defeat Boo Boo with just brute strength the Thousand Dragon came up with a strategy to use her giant body and pressure differences to defeat him

But at that very moment, something blew away all of the buildings in that corner of the inn town.

It was not human Magic.

This was much simpler: a collision from an enormous mass. The Succubus had no way of knowing, but it was a lot like the site of a large passenger plane crash. The nearby casino and battle arena were blown away and gears erupted like a volcano and scattered across the town. The attackers in Western mourning clothes and veils were struck by rubble and blown into the air by the wind. The Nun in the white habit did not initially know what had happened. It was on such a large scale that she only saw a giant wall no matter how high she looked.

It was a black dragon standing 1000 meters tall.

It was the Thousand Dragon of the Break News.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Wrecks the buildings of the inn town by landing

Atop the bell tower that signaled the final round of the Griffon race, a brown woman with long, light blue hair glared at the black dragon. And they both roared at the same time. One was the killer cry of a Mandragora and the other was the ultra- pressurized water breath fired from the mouth of the giant dragon that symbolized water and rainclouds. The two attacks collided at the midpoint, dispersed, and were diverted away. But the dragon’s attack still mercilessly broke the bell tower that Ileana stood on. She vanished along with the great mass of the collapsing stone tower.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Shoots a water breath at Ileana, breaking a stone tower

And then her massive wings gathered the wind.

Just as the greatest Mandragora broke through the rubble and poked her head out into the open air, she released the scream that was meant to kill criminals.

But to avoid falling victim to that legend, the Thousand Dragon sent explosive masses of air in every direction that whipped up a storm of rubble and gears as if to harass the humans some more. And the reaction to that downward blast launched the Thousand Dragon high into the blue sky.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Flapping her wings sends up a storm of rubble from rushed buildings

If they let the Thousand Dragon escape, the Succubus would escape the island and their reach. And they were up against a Break News. It was highly doubtful if even a unit of the Religious Society’s elites could bring that down.

[...]

A section of the ground twinkled like the starry sky.

By the time the Thousand Dragon realized they were Magic arrows fired into the sky by the humans of the Religious Society, dozens and even hundreds of colorful arcs passed right by her side. No, she had quickly twisted out of the way, but a few of them had still stabbed into her by pushing through the gaps in her thick scales. They were like flying snakes. They would alter their course to pursue the Thousand Dragon.

[...]

She was clearly being pecked at by a much lower opponent.

[...]

The dragon’s course took her straight across the island, but she could not make a rapid course correction. The immense Gs would make the Nun suffer and a great number of glowing arrows pursued them from behind. She wanted to avoid lowering her speed if at all possible.

As a hail of glowing arrows was fired from the surface, several of them pierced her body and wings, but none of them came close to fatal. Even if they were coated in poison, her body was over 1000 meters long. Since a chemical’s lethal dose was generally calculated based on body weight, the amount on an arrow would never bring her down.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Not threatened by the elite human adventurers from the Religious Society

It was not the human inn town behind them. It came from the exact opposite direction: the snowcapped peak of one of the mountains the dragon was fast approaching.

“What…? So fast! How!?”

The Succubus gasped, but the 1000-meter dragon did not wait around.

She opened her mouth wide and used her ultra-pressurized water breath to slice through her target along with a mountain peak.

It was cut down to size.

The spear piercing the heavens had its tip broken off and the Thousand Dragon passed just barely above what remained.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Cuts off a mountain's peak with her water breath

“I didn’t think you could pull off that breath without any kind of water supply. Then again, if Ground’s Nir had to supply your giant body with nutrients, it would dry up in no time flat. It's possible you would head out to the sea and feast on seafood alone, but this means you don’t have to hang around the land. You’re raising a full set of a Fire Spirit Salamander, Water Spirit Undine, Wind Spirit Sylph, and Earth Spirit Gnome inside your belly, aren’t you? And they give you an endless supply of energy. When you feed, it’s really just feeding them. That’s pretty well thought out. And if you use a fair bit of your fuel, can you raise a barrier against any of the Elements?”

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Ileana deduces that the Thousand Dragon has a full set of Elementals inside her stomach that give her an endless supply of energy as long as she keeps them fed. The Elementals are also the source of the water she spits, and Ileana suggests the Thousand Dragon could also use them to raise a magic barrier against any of the Elements

And a moment later, a great shaking reached her head and inner ear.

“Gah…!?”

“Can you hear me, Weakest? Surely you didn’t think I qualified as a Break News just because I could send out some deadly sound waves.”

A great number of invisible spears of sound targeted the black dragon.

[...]

The Religious Society was no comparison.

The land of Ground’s Nir stretched out below. Lights flashed equally from across the entire island.

That carpet of stars all concentrated into a single point of power.

That light signaled the Mandragora’s preparations to attack.

The Break News’s ultra-high frequency spears were approaching!!

The Thousand Dragon could not even hear her own roaring voice.

Her mind was too confused to even worry about the Succubus on her back. She lost balance in midair, her altitude dropped, and she entered a giant tailspin.

[...]

Down below, Ground’s Nir twinkled like a starry sky.

A reverse downpour of spears seemed to rebel against the laws of the world as they were launched from earth to heaven.

But those ultra-high frequency attacks were not targeting Boo Boo.

Their target was the “ground” they stood on: the Thousand Dragon.

“!”

The dragon ground shook, her mountain-like muscles writhed, and the people on her back were launched into the air.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Survives being struck with multiple barrages of sound spears from Ileana and her copies

With a roar of wind, the Thousand Dragon’s tail swung toward Boo Boo.

It was only a tail, but in human units, it was several hundred meters long.

She may have been making an ultra-massive attack more than providing him with footing. This collection of mass, speed, and kinetic energy could easily wipe out a great many stone buildings if it was swung through the inn town.

But Boo Boo accepted it.

He accepted that footing and this final chance provided by the dragon even as she clenched her teeth from the pain of the killer soundwaves.

He accepted those feelings, that kindness, and that strength.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 02 - Even while under pain from the attacks from the Ileanas the Thousand Dragon uses her tail to give Boo Boo mid-air footing

Ground’s Nir was a small but nature-filled island that a human could walk around in about 3 days. A lovely voice rang out like a bell. It was Fairy Queen Sutriona. She looked like a 10-year-old girl with long silver hair, white skin, and reddish-purple eyes. She wore a ribbon dress that was no more than black ribbons wrapped around her body with large flower petals and a miniskirt added to make it look more dress-like. Lastly, she mysteriously spoke from a position of superiority. Everything about her was imbalanced, but she was one of the Break News, the paradoxes with souls that took their name from the fact that they were sources of chaos so great that merely sighting one was treated as breaking news. They were bringers of extreme environmental change who readily referred to the Thousand Dragon, a giant dragon measuring more than 1000 meters, as their weakest.

The arrival of a typhoon was a problem, but if they never arrived, the national water jug would never fill. A volcanic eruption was a disaster, but ancient volcanic ash had helped create the fertile land. The Break News played that role as a single life form.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 04 - Break News

With the low rumbling of air, a giant silhouette passed by overhead, obscuring the moon. That was the Thousand Dragon a flying dragon measuring 1000 meters long who created great quantities of clouds just by flying by.

Sutriona put her hands on her hips, sighed, and struck a bold pose despite only wearing a button-up shirt.

“Big or small, it would seem all of the Break News are on the move. I’ve heard our strength is used against our will to power the largescale Traps in the Labyrinth, so perhaps something strange is occurring there.”

“Even so, why not leave this to the reckless humans who choose to visit that Labyrinth?” Ileana turned her head around with half her body still buried in the soil. “That over there would be the bigger problem for us.”

[...]

“I said big or small, didn’t I? The one’s that were more affected have gone crazy like that. And they still have their power as a Break News.”

[...]

Her wavy bluish-purple hair reached her feet and her skin was more blue than white. She seemed to absorb the night air and glowed with a pale light. She wore jewels across her naked body…no, there were enough of them that she seemed to be dragging them with her. She belonged to the species that the inn town’s humans referred to as the Treasure Goddesses.

No, it only looked that way.

Gullveig was camouflaged as the incarnation of a treasure monster, but the supposed jewels covering her body were actually univalve shellfish from the beach. In other words, they were colorful parasites. People were drawn in by the goddess’s nudity and the glow of the jewels, but once they were within the lethal range, the hundreds or thousands of lights would launch from her body and devour her poor, foolish prey. She was that sort of Break News.

[...]

“Flame Bubble, the goo lifeform that creates countless bubble bombs, and Frau Gothel, the statue of a beautiful girl with no known sculptor. What a pain. None of them are the kind you could talk with in the first place. It just makes this so much more complicated!”

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 04 - Together with Strigona and Ileana the Thousand Dragon fights the Break News sent into a rampage by Abyss' awakening; Gullveig, Flame Bubble and Frau Gothel

It was true that the Break News were crawling all across the small island due to the change in the Labyrinth.

If they were intoxicated and began thrash their limbs around wildly, it would cause unimaginable damage. The village of Fairies who revered Sutriona and the human inn town she enjoyed visiting might both vanish into the mist.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 04 - Rampaging Break News could destroy the inn town

Lightning, gravity, and lava. Their skill with Magic alone put them squarely in the Level Capper category. And in addition to their Shining Weapons, they wielded what were essentially assault rifles and machineguns with stocks made by carving down white bones. They used a combination of high and low fantasy that left no openings in their attacks. They had polished their power to kill and technique to reap lives. These were the movements of people who breathed the air of war like it was normal and set foot on the battlefield like it was normal.

[...]

A giant form blocked out the bright, sinister light of the moon.

A 1000m dragon flew through the moonlit night and passed over the Pure Knight’s head.

That was a Break News, a paradox with a soul.

The Thousand Dragon produced thick rainclouds from the pressure difference created by her flight and, the instant she opened her great maw, something like a beam of ultra-high pressure water tore through the main street.

No, it was not just her.

A Vampire surrounded by glowing red bats jumped along the surviving rooftops, the peak of the Mandragoras covered the ground, and the Fairy Queen spread butterfly wings made of toxic blood.

[...]

The sun had risen high in the sky.

Boo Boo and the others had been extremely worn down after constant fighting for more than a day and a night without rest. Meanwhile, the ghosts were already dead, so they did not have to worry about stamina and health. Boo Boo and Sutriona’s fierce attacks had supplied fatal blows to a few of the veteran soldiers, but…

[...]

With the aerial support lost, Boo Boo, Sutriona, and the others had lost their chance for a counterattack and the old soldiers of Elkiad rushed in toward them to attack. Some used Magic, some used bullets, and some used a combination of the two. The fierce attack was like a horizontal downpour, so Boo Boo and Sutriona briefly split up and took shelter on the roofs of different crumbling buildings. They of course stayed out of range of the Black Labyrinth as it was created from countless threads.

[...]

And a few Break News could be seen fighting from where they were. Giant butterfly wings were breaking apart and scattering a toxic red mist in the inn town and two enormous dragons were grappling and firing water and flame dragon breaths at each other in the sky above. Those paradoxes with a soul were generally uncontrollable and did not grow attached to humans, but they would take defensive action if an external threat was overrunning their territory.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 05 - Together with Boo Boo, Strigona, Ileana and Kallikantzaros against the Underworld forces, including the veteran members of the original incarnation of Elkiad

While circling through the sky, the Thousand Dragon began a second aerial bombing. Her target was of course the old soldiers, but even if she failed to finish them off, tearing apart the complexly interwoven Black Labyrinth and eliminating those phantom trenches would have a major effect.

Or it should have.

However.

Something else moved alongside her.

A giant flying dragon appeared from the thick clouds and targeted the Thousand Dragon with its brutal jaws.

The Thousand Dragon was longer than 1000m using human units, but even she felt a squeezing at her heart when she saw this. Her mind went blank and she could not even respond to the cries of Fairy Elder Morgan who flew nearby.

“Wha-…?”

It was a giant dragon covered in silver armor.

The Thousand Dragon did not even have time to raise her voice in protest against the unreasonable sight before her eyes.

A thick, orange-glowing beam of heat – no, it was technically some kind of metal heated until it liquefied – struck the black dragon on the stomach.

“Kyahh!?”

“She…she could have dodged that, but she protected us instead?”

The attack had been made at extreme close range. The pain of the cruel dragon breath was so great that the Thousand Dragon could not help but twist her body around. The stable cloud movements were thrown out of order and the aerial bombing strayed off course.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 05 - Tanks a molten metal breath from the Underworld's Architecture Dragon

Rusalka held a scythe with a circular blade that made it resemble the number 9. Gruagach held a large bow with close-range blades and a stabilizer. They were cutting it close with sunset so soon, but they managed to reflect the sunlight. When the flying black Dragon noticed, she rapidly descended.

Instead of grabbing them with her wings or claws, she used the power of the air to launch them up.

It was a lot like riding an aircushion. The two girls felt like dustballs in the wind as the Thousand Dragon subtly adjusted her position to catch them on her gargantuan back.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 05 - Uses the wind to pick up Gruagach and Rusalka

“Thousand Dragon, could you please blow away those…are those plain uniforms Soviet? Regardless, can you blow away those soldiers surrounding Ileana?”

“Ah, awah.”

“After that, support the volunteer army of Cat Sith and Cu Sith, take care of the Elkiad group approaching the southern forest…oh, and I just spotted Wildefrau and Huldra, so bomb the spiders around them. Yes, wipe clean the entire Black Labyrinth on the coast. Hee hee hee. Wipe it clean and throw it out!! The words come to my lips so naturally. Isn’t it romantic?”

[...]

“If you find a similar lump of gathered tunnels, concentrate on that! That seems to be where they keep their ammunition, so it’s a chance for a chain reaction, assuming we have no allies nearby!!”

“Ahhh!! So I really shouldn’t have done that in the inn town while Sutriona was there!?”

The ultra-high pressure water blasts tore across the surface like machinegun fire. The tiny targets along that line were swallowed up and blown away. A shot anywhere near a lump of tunnels would trigger a tremendous explosion that swept everything away. It was like an aerial bombing by a gunship in a movie or video game. Instead of an attack helicopter, those were large transport aircraft modified to carry weapons. It was all so flashy that each individual act of destruction felt unreal.

The Black Labyrinth was engulfing the island like a lunar eclipse, but it was torn away with each big explosion. That was proof that a change had occurred in the one-sided struggle for territory. The seesaw was tilting back in the other direction.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 05 - Bombards the Underworld army with her water breath

A crimson beam of heat was launched from the Underworld’s back and into the tranquil night sky.

It was a lot like an anti-air laser. The black flying Dragon was apparently taken completely by surprise. Her frantic evasive action was too little too late, her large wings were damaged, and she fell into the ocean.

“Wait, what!? Are you kidding!?”

“Weren’t Gruagach and Rusalka riding on that Dragon…?”

“The Thousand Dragon can swim like a swan and she’s large enough to act like a small island, so I doubt those girls would just drown…but I am worried about them.”

[...]

A moment later, red boiling lava erupted all over. The intense eruption was like an upside-down waterfall and it came with overwhelming heat and a sulfurous stench. They would be helpless if they were caught in that and the Underworld Lord continued his attacks.

Yes, even this was only preparation.

How was it he had shot down the Thousand Dragon while she flew so high in the sky?

“It…can’t be…!!”

With an unpleasant sound, a massive amount of lava was condensed into spheres around the Underworld Lord. The many throbbing spheres moved like giant rolling eyeballs and faced the Holy Swordswoman and the others.

His true attack had finally been launched.

The released lava glowed as it sliced through the night air like several laser beams.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 05 - Survives being heat with a compressed Underworld lava blood beam

For example, the silver-haired Fairy Queen named Sutriona and the blonde-haired Vampire named Kallikantzaros. They were both from the Break News that held extraordinary power on the island of Ground’s Nir. She was not directly working with them, but Ileana (or at least one of her copies) would be around there too.

[...]

“Besides, the humans are counting on us.”

“True enough.”

As previously stated, Beatrice and the others could only spend so much time here and the Underworld was vast. The odds were decent that they would reach the several-day time limit before solving the problem concerning the Underworld.

So the Holy Swordswoman had made a request on the way here.

“If they can’t solve everything in there, they want us to try blowing away the Underworld in a combined attack.”

“Well, if that would give us a nice happy ending, no one would be going in there in the first place, but it’s probably easier for them to know they have some kind of insurance.”

[...]

“The next dawn is our time limit. If Boo Boo and the others haven’t emerged yet by then, we’ll have to end this ourselves. We’ll gather together all of the Break News that can fight and finish off the Underworld in a simultaneous attack.”

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 05 - The Break News aligned with the good guys (Strigona, Thousand Dragon, Kallikantzaros and Ileana) were asked to destroy the Underworld, a large kilometers-long sea monster capable of eating the island of Ground's Nir, in a combined attack as a last resort if the human infiltrating it failed)

“And unlike me and my beautiful butterfly wings, she can fly quickly but she can’t stay in one spot…hovering, did they call it? Especially not with someone on her back. And the passengers couldn’t climb onto the islands since her giant body would knock them out of the sky.”

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 06 - Cannot hover in one spot

The Thousand Dragon fled through the sky and the collection of red rust pursued from the ground.

In this case, leaving the island and heading out to sea would successfully shake the inn town humans.

But the black dragon did not do that.

Once she arrived at the coast, she made a rapid turn and flapped her wings in search of a different route of escape that remained above the island.

Tossed about by the intense inertia, Rusalka dove head-first into the chest of Gruagach’s mourning clothes and gave a shout.

“Wh-what are you doing, you worthless dragon!? The ocean was right there!!”

Gruagach gently removed the other girl’s face from her chest, drew an arrow from the quiver at her waist, and nocked it to her stabilizer-equipped bow. Then she fired it into the empty air.

With the sound of a high-voltage current, something like a bluish-white wall appeared. The Thousand Dragon had made the rapid turn to avoid that.

“…A barrier?”

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 06 - Notices and avoids an invisible magic barrier

She had fallen.

The 1000m dragon had been brought down.

The injured Thousand Dragon lost her balance in midair and fell straight down. The pitch black dragon knocked over tree after tree in the forest and left large claw marks in the ground.

[...]

The beautiful woman glanced at the fallen Thousand Dragon.

The dragon had wounds here and there, but most of the blood came from her back. More than the large arrowheads shaped like ship’s anchors and more than the Magic fired by the Level Cappers, it was the wounds made by the reawakened Iberian Orcs that had done the most damage.

The Sage placed her gauntleted hand on the weakly breathing dragon’s scales.

She narrowed her eyes and whispered to her.

“Well done protecting the elder and the others this long. You twisted your body in the instant of impact to just barely avoid the village, didn’t you? You have my praise for that.”

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 06 - Even after being wounded by being pierced by anchors and having the Red Iberian Orcs start rampaging on her back the Thousand Dragon managed to control her fall to avoid crushing the Iberian Orc village

The very next moment, Boo Boo kicked off of something.

Was it a fragment of the barrier that had begun to fall? No. Was it the remains of Abyss’s broken boosters? Again, no.

“The…surface?” groaned Sky while facing a threat that refused to leave even after she sacrificed the artificial atmospheric barrier she had set as her top defensive priority. “Something was launched up from the surface!?”

[...]

Now, the Thousand Dragon did not maintain such a large body by eating. The island was small enough to walk the perimeter in three days, so it would dry up in no time if she tried to obtain nutrition through normal means.

That was why she took a large quantity of fire, water, wind, and earth spirits inside her body and had them produce energy. It may have been like a symbiotic relationship with a parasite. When it looked like she was eating, she was only supplying those spirits with what they needed.

In other words…

“We just need an energy source more brutal than those ordinary Elements.”

At times like this, Strigona would cross her arms, stand tall, and give a vicious smile.

Strongest of the Plants: Ileana.

Bearer of the Demon Lord Title: Tselika.

Autonomous Statue: Frau Gothel.

Flammable Slime Lifeform: Flame Bubble.

Self-Baiting Trap: Gullveig.

Controller of the Lunar Eclipse: Kallikantzaros.

And lastly, Fairy Queen: Strigona.

With that group present, the answer was obvious.

“For example, the Break News! Our power has always been a step above, so you don’t get to come crying to us that you couldn’t reach some puny little film surrounding our world, weakest!!”

And the Thousand Dragon herself had a brutal weapon. By gathering the energy produced within her body and sending it in a single direction, she could fire what was known as a Dragon Breath.

It was a beam of light, an explosive roar, and a shockwave.

This blast was fired up toward the heavens, but even watching from nearby required great durability. Strigona felt her skin tingling and her black ribbon dress’s miniskirt fluttered dangerously. She could never have brought the normal-sized Fairies like Meridiana, Alice, and Morgan here.

~ The Weakness of Beatrice 07 - Can fire Dragon Breath, a powerful beam of energy, as her trump card. Normally she uses the energy produced by the Elementals in her belly, but she was also able to use the energy of all other known Break News to fire it into space

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Elementals: The Thousand Dragon is raising a large quantity of Elementals (Fire Spirit Salamanders, Water Spirit Undines, Wind Spirit Sylphs, and Earth Spirit Gnomes) in her belly. These spirits give her an endless supply of energy as long as she keeps feeding them, which is what allows her to continuously use her breath attack without any kind of water supply. Another Break News also raised the possibility of the Thousand Dragon being able to use that energy to raise a barrier against any of the Elements.

  • Dragon's Breath: By gathering the energy produced in her belly by Elementals and sending it in a single direction the Thousand Dragon can fire a powerful beam of light. The usual power and range of this technique is unknown, as she has only used it in-story when supported by the energy of all other known Break News, in which the beam was powerful enough to reach the artificial atmospheric barrier set up by Reject Sky, and the shockwave and heat produced by the beam were powerful enough that creatures without great durability would die if they were close to the Thousand Dragon when she fired it.

Water Torrent: Thousand Dragon can spit a torrent of ultra-pressurized water from her mouth.

Wind: Due to her great size, Thousand Dragon needs only to flap her wings to send a great wind towards an enemy.

Rain: Thousand Dragon is able to create irregular downpours by simply splitting the air with her great form, creating something like a contrail that forms thick clouds.
